Yes, I do, the problem and question might be

How do I set my mail folders to keep items saved there indefinitely while only keeping mail in my active mailbox for a specified period of time?

There is no time limit in Firefox 4+ versions for the history.<br />
Firefox determines automatically how many pages can be kept without affecting the performance.<br />
You can see the current value via the reads-only pref places.history.expiration.transient_max_pages on the about:config page.
See:

If you lose the history then make sure that you do not use Clear Recent History to clear the browsing history.<br />
Also make sure that you do not have cleanup software that might clean up files in the Firefox Profile Folder.

I have trouble setting the trash mailbox behavior. I have set it to delete every month but it has been keeping the trash mails for only about 10 days. Please help.

I have trouble setting the trash mailbox behavior. I have had it set to delete the messages once a month. But lately it has been deleting my messages every 10 days. I have tried choosing different options to set the trash mailbox behavior but has not been successful. Is there anything I can do? Please help.

Thanks for that advice @randers4.
I linked through and submitted my info as a "topic not covered" in the iCloud section. After entering the serial number of my MBP it turns out I wasn't eligible for technical support (though I don't think this is hardware related support) and the final suggestion was to take my computer into an Apple store. I called my local Apple reseller and asked for assistance. The customer service rep was very nice but unable to help, so suggested I call Apple Support on 1300 321 456. I did so and, again, spoke to two very polite and helpful customer service people (I was transferred to security services). I didn't have to be on hold to speak to either rep for more than a few seconds! After trying a few different things, he worked out what was happening...
So, to cut a long story short, to solve the problem in my OP, all I had to do was log out of iCloud in my System Preferences and log back in using my current Apple ID. [Edited to add that I had to sign out of everything I was currently signed in to with my Apple ID before logging out and in again.]
Problem solved!

Is there a way to set an email mailbox so that mail from many months are stored, but the general default for the other mailboxes is a few days?

Is there a way to set an email mailbox so that mail from many months are stored, but the general default for the other mailboxes is a few days?

The only thing I can think of is to set the number of days to sync messages, shown below. But I'm not sure if this is what you're after. If it is go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars select the email account you wish to change.
This will then only sync emails from the last week for example. In the screenshot all email messages would be synced to the iPhone.

Aliases and not mailboxes for virtual domain

I know that virtual domains are broken in 10.5.1 and I'm not sure I want to upgrade to 10.5.2 yet until I know everyone else who has done it is working fine.
My question is our OSX Mail Server primary domain is xpmedia.com. We have an old mail server we are wanting to transition off of slowly. Right now the primary domain on that old server is extremeprophetic.com. We are wanting to take every single e-mail address on the old server and make them all xpmedia.com addresses which I'm in the process of creating right now. At some point we want to direct the MX record for Extreme Prophetic to our new mail server and do away with those addresses.
I don't want to create mailboxes for those addresses as they are going away. So my question is this. Let's say my old account is [email protected] and my new account on the new server is [email protected] If when I create that new xpmedia.com address, can I just make an alias in WGM for [email protected] and it will all come to my xpmedia.com account? Or do I have to do it the way of all my other virtual domains with the editing of the virtual file in postfix and forward those accounts on to xpmedia.com addresses?

I think I found out how to do this by reading another entry. I just need to make the other domain not a virtual domain but a local host alias. I think I'm good to go.

How can I set up various mailboxes in Mail on my iPad.

How can I set up various mailboxes in Mail on my iPad.
I am using a Pop account and don't want to change this setup.
I use two devices to access the same email account but I am not experiencing any lockout issues.
Mail is simply not giving me any options to create mailboxes and there must be a way of doing this. If I can do it in my iMac, surely I can do the same thing on my iPad.

-Tap "Settings" app,
-Select "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" option on the left hand side,
-On the right, under "Accounts" on top, tap "Add Account...",
-Select one of the email service providers or "Other",
-Under "Mail", tap "Add Mail Account",
-A window pops up and enter your new email account details.
-Repeat for new email accounts.

Multiple domain mailboxes for one AD user in exchange 2013

I just wanted to make sure that this hasn't changed in exchange 2013 or if there's a better way to do this
we have a few users that need an email for companyA.com and CompanyB.com. For easy separation we've decided to create a separate mailbox for each email. Right now the only way i can figure how to easily associate both mailboxes with 1 AD user is to set up
their main email as their default mailbox, then create a shared mailbox and grant full permission for that user. Then in Outlook they have access to both accounts from 1 profile.
However I'm not sure how this would work for mobile access. In Office365 connecting to 2 exchange accounts on a mobile device was pretty straight forward since each mailbox had a unique login. I know when a shared mailbox is created, a disabled user
is created in AD, I'm wondering if i can enable that account and then the user uses that login to connect to that account through their mobile device. Or maybe theres a simpler way to accomplish this goal?

we have a few users that need an email for companyA.com and CompanyB.com.
Hi Derek,
Why not just create an additional email address for the users?
"You can use the EAC or the Shell to add or remove an email address for a user mailbox. You can configure more than one email address for the same mailbox. The additional addresses are called
proxy addresses. A proxy address lets a user receive email that’s sent to a different email address. Any email message sent to the user's proxy address is delivered to their primary email address, which is also known as the
primary SMTP address or the default reply address."
Add or Remove Email Addresses for a Mailbox
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123794.aspx
"create a shared mailbox and grant full permission for that user"
Do you mean a few users have a shared email address? For example:
UserA:
Primary(main) address: [email protected], shared address:
[email protected]
UserB:
Primary(main) address: [email protected], shared address: [email protected]
If not, you can just create an addtional address for the users.

Use this mailbox for Junk does not appear to work in Mail 4.2.

Hello, all:
Have been using 10.6.x since it came out on my previous iMac [24" Early 2008 model]. Went with a fresh install of 10.6.3 on the new iMac [27" i7], and ported data over.
The only problem that I've had is that setting the Use this mailbox for Junk command in setting up Mail 4.2 does not seem to work. I've closed Mail and looked at ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist, and the correct mailbox name is indicated for the two accounts [IMAP and GMail over IMAP] where I'd like to do Junk Mail filtering. However, there is no centralized Junk Mail filter, which is really annoying me.
I didn't have this problem previously in Mail 4.x, and I'm expecting that it's a bug specific to 4.2, which I haven't seen in my previous incarnation because I did the import from 3.x->4.0, and the prefs carried forward correctly from 4.0->4.2.
Anyone else running into this, and is there anything else I should be looking at? Am I explaining the problem such that it's clear what I'm asking?
Thanks,
Geof

I figured out the problem (for me, anyways). In Preferences > Junk Mail, make sure Junk filtering is enabled and make sure the "move it to junk mailbox" radio button is selected.

Apple Mail - undo Mailbox - Use this mailbox for

Using Apple Mail 4.5, I tried to get my mom's Trash back to a normal place. She's using Gmail, and IMAP. I tried doing a "Mailbox" and then Use this mailbox for and pointing it to Gmail's trash. Now it is empty.
What is the proper way to set up IMAP gmail with Apple Mail?

Mail has to store those messages somewhere. Hence, the only way to “undo” those selections is to do Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For on a different mailbox or to turn OFF the corresponding Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors > Store messages on the server setting.

"Use this mailbox for" not working for Spam on one mac but fine on another

I have Mail running on my Macbook Pro using IMAP. I have a business email account and a personal email account both with the same mail provider. When I create the account it creates a folder under the IMAP folders for Sent, Trash and Spam. I highlight each of these and use the "Use this mailbox for" command to set them for Sent, Trash and Junk respectively. This moves the folders up under the Mailboxes section at the top of mail. Everything is great.
Now, exactly the same on my brand new iMac. When I get to the part about "Use this mailbox for", Sent and Trash work exactly the same as on the Macbook Pro but Spam stubbornly refuses to change and I am left with an extra folder under the IMAP folders.
I am using the same version of OS X, the same version of mail and exactly the same setting in mail preferences. I don't understand why I can't get the Spam folder to be used as Junk? ANyone out there got any ideas?

I have the same problem on my new MBP with Snow Leopard. I have multiple gmail accounts in Mail with IMAP. I can set the Sent/Drafts/Trash mailboxes to be used by Mail. But when I do the same with the Spam mailbox nothing happens at all.
This is really annoying as I now have to go through all of my Spam mailboxes manually to check if there is a false positive. This seems to be a bug in Apple Mail? I also tried to set up all my accounts again but it didn't help, same problem.

CMDLET commands regarding setting a default font for all users using OWA on an exchange 2010 platform

HI,
We are running Exchange 2010 and are migrating users from 2003 to 2010 with no problems. The client has asked me to set OWA font to LuidaSans which I can do for individuals with no problems. However, when I try and run the following command
Get-Mailbox -Resultsize Unlimited | Set-MailboxMessageConfiguration -LucidaSans but then got a message to state
"property composefontname can't be set on this object becuase it requires the object to have version 0.1 <8.0.535.0> or later. The object's currant version is 0.0 <6.5.6500.0>"
What object is this reffered to? Can anyone help please?
Thanks
Paul

Hi,
To set a default font for all users, you can use this command: -
Get-Mailbox | Set-MailboxMessageConfiguration -DefaultFontName "Trebuchet"
You can use any font style in place of “Trebuchet”.
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

New mailbox for returning employee

We have a returning employee that still has a mailbox in our exchange box. we would like to save and lock the mailbox so the employee has no access to his old emails. And give him a new mailbox for use. is this possible in exchange 2007?

Right... You want to save the messages...
What does the pending deletion message say?
I think you have a couple options:
The disconnected mailbox is set for deletion (by default) 30 days after it is disconnected.
1. You could reconnect it to another user (you could just create a custom user) or...
2. Export the messages first, to a .pst file.
What version of Outlook are you running? An export would probably make more sense than keeping that mailbox connected to a custom user for a long time.
Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you.

[Exchange-Online][EWS][c#][Windows 8.1] When creating appointment using impersonation "Set action is invalid for property" error occurs.

I have an Outlook add-in that creates appointments to a load of Office 365 calendars. It used to work well but suddenly I have hit a problem.
The basic calling code is
Appointment appointment = new Appointment(exchangeService);
appointment.Subject = subject;
appointment.Body = body;
appointment.Location = location;
appointment.IsAllDayEvent = allDay;
appointment.LegacyFreeBusyStatus = LegacyFreeBusyStatus.Busy;
appointment.IsOnlineMeeting = false;
appointment.Save(SendInvitationsMode.SendToNone);
This still works fine on my own Office 365 mailbox but if I switch to another, using Impersonation, the Save line now throws the error "Set action is invalid for property."
There does not seem to be a problem with impersonation. The line
exchangeService.ImpersonatedUserId = new ImpersonatedUserId(ConnectingIdType.SmtpAddress, selectedUserEmail);
runs OK and afterwards the exchangeService's ImpersonatedUserID gives the correct email address.
If I look at the appointment object in the Watch window immediately after the line that creates it has run I can see that most of the properties have an entry like:
appointment.AdjacentMeetingCount' threw an exception of type 'Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ServiceObjectPropertyException'.
Also, several properties including Subject are not listed in the expanded appointment object in the Watch window.
However, entering appointments.Subject explicitly in the Watch window does give the correct result.
I have used the floating watch to check the value of each property straight after it is set and each one is as expected.
I am at a loss as to what to check next and would be grateful for all ideas.
Mike VE

Thanks for the reply Jason. I did as you suggested and found that it was the IsOnlineMeeting that caused the problem. Once that was commented out everything worked as expected. On checking I see that this property is ReadOnly for everyone except the
organizer of the meeting. Clearly the Impersonate role is not regarded as the organiser.
I don't think it is going to matter so long as the user in whose calendar the appointment is created has fully access to the appointment, which seems to be the case.
Thanks for your help.

Use This Mailbox for... not working for Yahoo Bulk Mail

Hello!
I have a Mac Pro and MacBook Pro, both running Mountain Lion. My two Yahoo mail accounts are successfully set up via Mail on both Macs. I was able to use the "Use this Mailbox for..." command to assign the Drafts, Sent and Trash for each account to the respective Yahoo folders (so I don't have duplicate folders). The problem is trying to do the same for the Bulk Mail folders.
On my Mac Pro, I was able to successfully select the Yahoo Bulk Mail folders for each account and use "Use this Mailbox for... --> Junk" and it worked, no problems. On the MacBook Pro, however, when I attempt to do the same thing, it doesn't seem to take. Nothing happens...the Bulk Mail folder in each account remains separate in each account's folders, instead of moving up under the Mailboxes above the VIPs, Drafts, Sent and Trash.
I've tried Rebuilding the mailboxes, and eventually deleting the accounts and re-adding them to Mail on the MBP...still can't get the Bulk Mail folders to assign to Junk. The others (Drafts, Sent, Trash), no problems.
Suggestions?

Well, after literally months of searching, and trying to find different search terms to find the answer, I finally solved it.
